"It's clear that John Galliano was ill when this happened. He had a triple addiction to alcohol, benzodiazepine (Valium) and sleeping pills. The combined effect of these drugs left him in a state of complete and utter abandon…When he was in that state he had no way of knowing or remembering what he said. Every witness at the cafe has said he was in an abnormal condition."

Inneresting defense, but is it strong enough?

Do U think Galliano's "addiction" defense will keep him out of jail???

In a lawsuit filed last month, the scandal-plagued designer accuses Stephane Zerbib of "embezzling nearly three million euros ($4.4 million) from his own account and one of his companies."

Did he not think he'd get caught!?

The complaint goes on to say that Zerbib, who was hired to manage the rights of Galliano's image, made multiple cash withdrawals from the bank account using the company card and on one occasion up to seven times a day.

But wait it gets better!

Stephane is firing back at his former client with a countersuit for defamation.

"Mr Zerbib was dismissed as Galliano's lawyer some weeks ago following the discovery of apparent irregularities in respect of his firms administration of Galliano's financial affairs over a number of years."

We hope they were able to find someone willing to represent him or he's going to be S.O.L.

"My metabolism actually changed like crazy this year. I have Hashimoto's disease. It's a thyroid disease, and it's now been two years since taking the medication for it, so for the VS show I didn't want to lose any more weight, I just want to have muscles in the right place, and if my butt can get a little perkier, then that's good."
